She changed the subject so abruptly that Feng Mingqi was stunned for a moment, then said somewhat awkwardly, "Ah, that's true. The Demon Realm has strict hierarchies. Different levels of demons must wear fabrics of different grades. This is a rule that all minor races must follow."
Feng Mingqi paused at this point.
Qi Yu leaned to the side, "So, which level of demons are infected?"
Upon hearing this, Feng Mingqi hastily sent someone to investigate.
When the results came out, Qi Yu stroked his chin and pondered, "The ones who lost their demonic power are all mid-level demons. It seems the person who cast the Centipede Gu on the Demon Realm has ulterior motives."
Mid-level demons were the main source of power in the Demon Realm during wars with other realms.
Because demons were an arrogant race, low-level demons lacked sufficient magic, and high-level demons, proud of their status, would not easily go to battle unless it was for fame and fortune. Even then, they would only be generals. Therefore, mid-level demons contributed the most.
And now, the mid-level demons were the most affected by the Gu.
It was clear that the person targeting the Demon Realm was aware of this.
Yan Hua stood to the side with his arms crossed, "Who are the Demon Realm's usual enemies?"
Feng Mingqi quickly replied, "Actually, there are basically no races that are at odds with the Demon Realm."
After all, they had Yue Zhiyin and the others.
As leaders and patriarchs of their respective races, if they didn't oppose Feng Mingqi, their subordinates would certainly not dare to sneak into the Demon Realm and cause trouble.
"...Could it be Yu Zhen?" Chen Xi guessed, "She's missing now, and she developed many Gu techniques."
"But Feng Mingqi is her son," Qi Yu found it hard to believe. "What would be her reason for doing this? Even if she really wanted to cast Gu, wouldn't she cast it on us?"
Feng Mingqi fell into thought.
Chen Xi also couldn't figure out the reason.
Feng Fengzui looked at Qi Yu, "Then, how can this Centipede Gu be dispelled?"
"Centipede Gu is divided into many types, with many sub-classifications, so it's not easy to dispel," Qi Yu said slowly. "But the most severe condition for so many demons after being affected is the loss of all demonic power, or even the inability to recover. This proves that someone is absorbing their demonic power."
"All realms have barriers. Any significant disturbance will trigger an alert, so the person absorbing the mid-level demons' demonic power wouldn't dare to stray too far from the Demon Realm. They must be secretly absorbing demonic power in some corner of the Demon Realm."
"That being said, we just need to check which area in the Demon Realm has abnormal demonic power," Sui You concluded with a solemn expression.
Hearing him say this, Yue Zhiyin suddenly leaped into the air, standing mid-air and looking down at the entire Demon Realm.
Feng Mingqi flew to his side.
Qi Yu and Si Qing, like little tails, followed closely with An Nuo, Shao Feng, and the others.
The group stood together in the clouds, observing the Demon Realm from different angles.
Yan Hua and Chen Xi stood behind them in silence for a long time. Seeing that they still couldn't figure anything out, Yan Hua couldn't help but raise his chin, "Over there, look, isn't there a very obvious abnormal fluctuation of demonic power over there?"
Everyone leaned in together.
Chen Xi pinched Qi Yu's cheek and moved him aside, "Yan Hua is talking about over there."
"Oh, I see," Qi Yu shifted his gaze, muttering, "But, it's so strange, Master Chen Xi, how can you see the direction Master pointed out at a glance?"
Yan Hua had only raised his chin, making the specific angle difficult to pinpoint.
"This is called telepathy, understand, little brat?" Chen Xi patted Qi Yu's head.
Qi Yu opened his mouth to bite his hand.
Feng Mingqi looked in the direction they indicated and frowned, "This is the Ice Demon tribe's territory. It's icy and snowy there, and our ordinary demon patrols don't go there."
This was because ordinary demons couldn't stay in the Ice Demon tribe's territory for too long.
"You haven't been there yourself?" Qi Yu looked at Feng Mingqi in confusion. "Even you, a Demon Lord, can't stand the cold there?"
Although somewhat embarrassed, Feng Mingqi couldn't help but nod. "I went there once during the Centipede Gu outbreak, but I didn't go in at all. It was too cold inside, and the accompanying demon army was frozen solid."
"That cold? This is clearly not right. Didn't you notice something was wrong?" Yan Hua frowned at Feng Mingqi. "How could you be so careless?"
Feng Mingqi fiddled with his fingers, QAQ, "Because the Ice Demon tribe's territory is usually very cold, so I didn't associate this place with anything..."
Yan Hua sighed, "In that case, let's go into the Ice Demon tribe's territory and take a look now."
